For overview, the PC update looks at general user interface improvements, performance issues and the prevention of campaign pop-ups appearing outside of the campaign. There are also some minor campaign fixes, including an issue where Russian players couldn’t join drop in co-op. Finally, the multiplayer has had some tweaks. For instance, the switch team option has been removed from the pause menu and improved camera transition when a Xeno enters a vent.

Meanwhile, Xbox owners have received all of this and some splitscreen tweaks, such as the weapon Radial menu no longer appears for other players when the pause menu is opened, and a fixed issue where if the Game Menu is opened while accessing the Weapon Radial, it stays up on does not function properly.

Finally, Playstation 3 owners have received all the same, but received quite a few animation fixes and Escape updates.

The full patch notes can be seen above. Do you think any of the improvements made could help your enjoyment of the game?
